[edit] Concept and creation

George Lucas created the Ewoks because he wanted Return of th= e Jedi to feature a tribe of some primitive creatures that bring down t= he technological Empire. He had originally intended the scenes to be set on= the Woo= kiee home planet, but as the film series evolved, the Wooki= ees became technologically skilled. Lucas designed a new species instea= d, and says his approach was simple: Wookiees are tall, so he made Ewoks sh= ort.[2] The Ewok = are named after the Miwok, a Native American tribe, indigenous to= the Redwood forest in which the Endor scenes were filmed for Return of the Jedi, near t= he San Rafael location of Lucas' Skywalker Ranch. The name also= is a pun on the syllables of Wookie in reverse order. [3] In the film, the name "Ewok" is n= ever actually pronounced, but appears in the ending credits.
As presented in the films, Ewoks appear as stocky, sapient bipeds whic= h stand about one meter tall. They have flat faces, are completely covered = in fur, and have large jewel-like eyes. Both their fur and their eyes come = in a variety of earth-tones, primarily brown, white, grey, gold, and black.= Despite their small size, Ewoks are strong; in the climactic battle scene = of Return of the Jedi, they are shown physically overpowering and on= ce even throwing Imperial Stormtroopers, thou= gh this detail is not consistent throughout the film. Ewoks live high among= the trees of their home moon's forests, in villages built on platforms bet= ween the closely spaced trees.
An "Ewokese" language was created for the films by Return of the Je= di=E2=80=99s sound designer Ben Burtt.[4] On the commentar= y track for the DVD of Return of the Jedi, Burtt explains that the l= anguage is based on Kalmyk, a language sp= oken by the Kalmyk people of Russia. Burtt heard the language in a documentary and liked its sound, which seems very alien to Western ears. After some research= , he identified an 80-year old Kalmyk refugee. Burtt recorded her telling folk st= ories in her native language, and then used the recordings as a basis for s= ounds that became the Ewok language and were performed by voice actors who = imitated the old woman's voice in different styles. For the scene in which = C-3PO spea= ks Ewokese, actor Anthony Daniels worked with Burtt and invente= d words, based on the Kalmyk recordings.[5]
